When it was known that UND would be putting out an RFP for media rights it was March 15, 2022 and noted that " ... UND will send out a Request for Proposals (RFP) in the coming weeks." Knowing UND's administrative velocity (somewhere between slow and turtle) the RFPs maybe got out April 1. And an RFP normally has a 30, 60, or 90 day window. You're claiming someone has responded already and you know details. Really. Seems I gotta get out to the truck stop for biscuits and gravy more often.

The Sicatoka Posted April 21, 2022 Posted April 21, 2022 Looks like Cavanaugh at UConn used BC's interest in him to leverage a new deal with UConn. Speculation is BC will go after Greg Brown (former York assistant, currently USHL Dubuque) next.

Instead of running to a more successful program. This is what I wish Mel would have done, but no he ran to Michigan.

Schloss tweeted he's not at the NCAA coaches meetings in Naples. Big trouble in Ann Arbor? That's a shame.

brianvf Posted April 22, 2022 Posted April 22, 2022 With all this speculation about Pearson, Berry should put in a feeler for the Fantilli brothers in case they want to avoid all the drama surrounding this Michigan debacle. Do a swap, Montgomery and Budy for Luca & Adam. That'd put us at 16F / 9D / 4G since Luca is a D, but I'm sure Berry could do some juggling and make it work.
The Sicatoka Posted April 22, 2022 Posted April 22, 2022 The larger media story: UND is taking back control of marketing its media rights. https://www.inforum.com/sports/mcfeely-blog-und-will-sever-ties-with-learfield-handle-its-own-multimedia-rights-deals Paying Learfield, and REA, and whichever other entities, to do it is overhead charges for each. Consolidating and going to the model Nebraska went back to is worth a try to simplify, cut out a middle man, and save overhead charges.
Wilbur Posted April 23, 2022 Posted April 23, 2022 Chrona coming back to Denver. I'd say he ends up as a Richter award nominee.
cberkas Posted April 23, 2022 Author Posted April 23, 2022 Poor Wisconsin, well I really don’t feel sorry for them. They are going to be garbage for a few more years even after Tony leaves. Eaves really wasn’t that bad now was he. Like with Maine, the grass isn’t always greener on the other side.

Wilbur Posted April 23, 2022 Posted April 23, 2022 U18 playing Canada right now. Duluth Bulldog Isaac Howard just scored. This has to be the best US 18 team since the Clayton Keller group. Tons of really good hockey players coming into the college game next year.

More international games on that platform, por favor. 1
Wilbur Posted April 23, 2022 Posted April 23, 2022 The Dogs got one with Howard. Love kids with a shoot first mentality. Wonder how many shots he's attempted so far.
Wilbur Posted April 23, 2022 Posted April 23, 2022 Jackson Blake has got his work cut out for him if he's going to win NCHC rookie of the year. Howard with his third. Although Canada's d zone is about as clean as my ten year old's room. 1
